FlashSystem GUI + FCM + SGC --> NO PHYSICAL CAPACITY INFO

In a FS config + FCM drives, working with CSM ans SGC (SafeGuarded Copies).
Each SGC reserve 2% of LOGICALcapacity of source volume. But there is not possible to view PHYSICAL CAPACITY information after FCM compression. Virtualize GUI do not show real phisical capacity.

Or something like a script that would give a compression report by VG and/or by SGCs associated with that VG, let's say something that orders the volumes and analyzes them with compresstimator and gives a summary. That would be also helpful.
